an enjoyable few hours on the beach

[slowsweep]

sunny but cold, managed £3.85, 2 dog tags, 1 tin snowman and a childs ring plus the usual dross

the ring is stamped SG (within a circle) and -5 beside that, the ring is not valuable but if anyone knows what that stamp is could they let me know

possibly siver plated

thanks for looking

That ring certainly looks silver plated from here. If it's about 17mm inside diameter then the -5 could be a US ring size.

thanks for the info, i used a tape measure, i know its not exact but its between 15/16mm inside, most of the plate is gone leaving a copper base metal, it looks like a marble effect inlay surrounding the entire ring, it must have been quite nice when new

It's probably a 'mood' ring...they're supposed to change colour,but when they've been in the sea for a while they don't seem to work....the one's I've found do only if you run them under the hot tap
Here's another with the same mark but no idea what it means...probably a far east manufacturer

Nice little haul. I've had a few these seaside trinket rings. The coating is plastic on aluminium

Tomo this ring is definitely copper mate and way to heavy for alu, whether the inlay is plastic or not i dont know, what i do know is that its a childs costume ring and worth nothing

Ah must be different versions. Sure mine was Ali lol. Still a finger ring is nice to find, makes a change from the coinage
